I can’t even wrap my brain around this. The plastic culture will choke the life out of us. Whenever I go to the grocery, the bagger is almost always insisting on putting SOMETHING in a plastic bag. If I’m not careful, that is. Usually I can catch them before they do it, and I get the “You don’t want plastic”? as if I had three eyes and two heads….
One guy I thought was going to have a heart attack because I refused plastic.

~~In relation to the toxic orange cloud story — a Fire Fighter in Fort Wayne told me once that they are particularly careful when responding to fires involving plastic, because it turns to cyanide when burned, and will drop you in a second.
